7/6 ASTRO POD – Baseball is back! Bill Brown, Steve Sparks, Joe Niekro - a podcast by MLB.com

Broadcasters Bill Brown and Steve Sparks analyze the upcoming 2020 60-game season. Which teams are best built for the shortened season? How will gameday strategies affect managerial decisions? How will Dusty Baker and Brent Strom formulate their starting rotation and relief core? Brown and Sparks break down some of the Summer Camp's burning questions.
BONUS TRACK: Joe Niekro played 11 seasons in an Astros uniform and is the all-time franchise leader with 144 victories. From 1977-’83, “Knucksie” Niekro led the NL in innings pitched (1,857), was secondmost in strikeouts (1,228) and set a single-season franchise record in ’79 for wins with a 21-11 record. Listen to Brown and Spaky discuss Joe’s knuckleball career before Knucksie stops by the radio booth in a 1999 broadcast in the Astrodome.Learn more about your ad choices.
